I decided to go back to the Gen 1 starters for this Near Pokédex M entry. This finally wraps up Squirtle’s evolution line on both sides of the ‘dex. For the female Blastoise I went more along the BBW route, leaning more into a big and soft body type. For the male side I went more muscular, which is probably more accurate for the original design’s philosophy anyway.
With this entry I believe all of the Gen 1 starts and their evolutions are covered on the female side of the Near Pokédex. Blastoise is one I’d been putting off ’cause I wasn’t sure how to handle the shell with how I wanted to draw her body, but I decided to do what I’ve seen some furry artists do and just treat the underside of her shell like skin. I think she turned out pretty good, and I hope y’all will enjoy her.
